Hi Susan,

Hans Juergen Krull is absolutely correct. Carwitz is under the jurisdiction
of the parish in Feldberg. I have researched in this area for quite some
time.

Here are the films available which you can order from your local LDS Family
History Center:

This information is from the Family History Library Catalog.

These are the five films which Merlin referred to.

What are the surnames that you are researching in this area?

Regards,

This list is so great. I am researching DARBE, WAGNER, G�TSCHLAG, and
BENZIN.
They all must have come to the Detroit, Michigan area around the same time
(1873) they all seem to marry into families here in the US from their
hometowns of Carwitz and Feldberg. I rented the microfilm for the parish
here in the Detroit area they all settled in.
I was once told when you came to the US, you needed to be sponsored. Is that
true for the 1800's also?
